You input is in json format

you can try this

filter  
{  
json  
{  
source =\> "message"  
}  
}

My log format is not in json.  
This is my input message in key value pair :

key1=first value key2=second value key3=value3

my fieldnames are different in log. i need values with spaces to be included to field name.

ie:  
input  
key1 = first value key2 = value2  
should return  
{  
"key1" =\> "first value",  
"key2" =\> "value2",  
}

but in logstash output values after spaces are not included.

my logstash output:  
{  
"key1" =\> "first",  
"key2" =\> "value2",  
}
